clearly i'm not a real blogger

just like every other self-proclaimed internet nerd who has a personal blog, i haven't updated mine in awhile. probably because like every other self-proclaimed internet nerd who has a personal blog, i made the rediscovery that real life is actually more interesting than not only blogging, but reading other blogs.

regardless...i've drawn inspiration from somewhere to post. and here's what i have to offer:

found myself in Cuba last month working with kids in a town on the eastern end of the country.

spent an quick afternoon in havana before flying home.

my roommates rich and mindy finished recording a new album and played a show at o'brothers earlier this month.

on my days off from work (which are becoming more and more frequent) i've been walking around riverside with my camera.

(and more)

that's my life. and that's my update. don't worry, i'm sure i won't post again for another couple of months. real life turned out to be pretty amazing.

i'm not a cat guy, but....

the weather's been crappy, i had the day off and felt like distracting myself with my camera and Tom was the only one in the house with me...so i broke down and started taking photos of the cat. i hate to admit it...but clearly not enough to keep me from posting. so here's Tom in all his lazy glory.

shangrala at the brian hicks benefit show at eclipse last night

found myself at eclipse last night for the stop brian cancer II show. shangrala were top notch as always, this time with the added bonus of beautiful mustaches. grabbed some shots (that are ridiculously more fuzzy than i was hoping for) during the show.

i have never wanted nicer camera equipment more. regardless....enjoy.


















and some faces in the crowd...
